See section 4.12 Configure dialin in this howto for instructions on how to
setup mgetty for dial-in access:

This was what I used initially.  I didn't have any difficulty getting it to
work.

The biggest problem you may have is getting a high-speed dial-up connection
through your employer's PBX system.  On a lot of PBXs ~2400 bps may be the
best you can do.  If you can get a direct analog line then do so, that way
you may get up to 28 Kbps.
